    If there are no changes, Kavanaugh will be confirmed with the most narrow majority of any Supreme Court nominee in history. No one defeated has ever lost by a vote so close, either.

        This would be the closest SCOTUS confirmation vote in the history of the 50 states altogether.https://twitter.com/steve_vladeck/status/1048188209988096000 …

        The closest #SCOTUS confirmation vote in history was on March 14, 1881, when the Senate confirmed Justice Stanley Matthews by a 24-23 vote: https://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/reference/nominations/Nominations.htm … There’s never been a tie vote (broken by the Vice President) to confirm _any_ federal judge, let alone a Justice.

        In 20th/21st century nominations, this is true. But two 19th century nomination votes were in fact closer: Stanley Matthews (confirmed 24-23 in 1881) and Jeremiah Black, who was rejected by a procedural vote 25-26 on the eve of the Civil War in 1861.

        Gut guess as of 11:42pm ET. Kavanaugh final vote is 51-49. Murkowski a no, Manchin a yes. Rest party line. But it is still way early and lots can happen to change things. Especially if there’s massive protest in-state, targeting swing Senators.
